I had two light come on this morning on the way to work, unfortunately I do not carry the owner's manual in my car. One was the ABS light and the other I think has to do with traction control (a car with squiggly lines under it). Can anyone confirm what the last one is?

Thanks

If the ABS is on, it means there's a problem with the anti-lock brakes and you should have it checked out.

The car with squiggles is traction control. It only illuminates with the TCS is actively being used by the car.


I dunno...your ABS stopped working so TCS kicked in to make sure you keep control?

Edit: FYI, TMS has the Owners Manual in the 2005 Mustang Documents Section.

Thanks for the info....I was pretty sure the last was traction control, but I couldn't 'member for sure.

BTW...Even thought the TCS light is on; I know the system is not actually active....Especially on the I-state with cruise set at 70 and clear roads.

I will be taking it to the dealer tonight.
